It's night, but the city of Dijing City is prosperous at night, and many places have their own "charm" that can only be shown at night. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the past few days, the city is even more lively, and the New Year is approaching, many people release sky lanterns or light lantern boats from the small river, not only to ask for a good omen in the coming year, but also to bid farewell to the deceased minister Nan Ruoan.

The four big fang cities all have a "night market" said, the night comes, each fang market has a road is brightly lit, the street is a trickle of small river, this small river is artificially dug up, the four big fang city small rivers are connected, it is rumored to be one of the links of the imperial capital array.

The lightboats in the small river drifted down, and on both sides of the small river, the voices of people were noisy, mostly restaurants, and the sound of the Taoist wine order was heard.

The night market avenues of the east and west cities are quieter, and most of the people who can enter the two cities are those with prominent status or advanced cultivation, even if they drink and chat, they also prefer to be quiet, so there is less noise of the people.

Drunken Immortal Residence is also one of the best restaurants in the West Market, and it is rumored that its owner is an important minister in the court, so there are naturally many dignitaries and dignitaries who come here, and its dare to be called "Drunken Immortal" naturally also attracts many Xianlu monks to patronize and taste the taste of its signature "Drunken Immortal Brew".

In the evening, Zhang Xiyun went to Xishi with An Luping, and the two of them were speechless along the way.

Zhang Xiyun could obviously sense that An Luping had a knot in his heart that could not be untied, and sighed in his heart, but he didn't intend to be bored.

When the two of them walked to the Drunken Immortal Residence, night had already fallen.

"Ann-sama. Outside the Drunken Immortal Residence, a middle-aged man dressed in brocade clothes greeted him with a smile on his face, "Lord An, you can count it, the prince has been waiting for a long time, please." ”

"Yes. An Lu said indifferently, and followed the man into the Drunken Immortal Residence with an expressionless face.

Zhang Xiyun also walked in, looking around and couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, it was really magnificent.

The gilded wall top, fairy wood tables and chairs, and the ground is covered with snow-white exotic animal fur as a carpet.

As soon as the two entered the door, several glances looked over and looked at their identities.

Seeing that the two of them were led upstairs, a different color flashed in everyone's eyes.

There are two floors above and below the Drunken Immortal Residence, and the identity of those who can go upstairs is naturally more prominent.

Among them, some people naturally recognized An Luping, although he was not in the imperial capital all the year round, and he rarely went to the streets of Waichengfang City, but after all, his identity was there, and many people still knew him and recognized him at a glance.

However, there are very few people who can recognize Zhang Xiyun's identity, and some people ignore the martial arts at all, so naturally they have never seen his portrait, and they will not think of him through Qin Tianjian for a while.

"Why is An Luping here?"

"Tsk, I just wanted to say that it must not be easy to charter the characters on the second floor today, and I didn't expect that even An Luping would need to give him face to come ......"

"Yes, I have never heard that An Luping will come to the night market restaurant, not to mention that I heard that after Nan Ruo'an's death, An Luping will be the next Qintian supervisor, I can't imagine that there is still someone who can invite him at this time......"

"Qin Tianjian supervises hundreds of officials, I think that even the six Shangshu do not have such a face, who will be on the second floor, the third duke or the third seat of Jiuqing......"

"Today, the two kings returned to Beijing, and it can't be said that one of them is holding a banquet!"

These spectators are leisurely and complacent, guessing one by one, but they really hit one or two of them.

The middle-aged man with a smile on his face who was leading the way moved his ears slightly, as if he heard the words of others, his eyes glanced over, and a cold light flashed in an instant.

After sending the two of them into the upstairs room, he looked down at the people downstairs and said coldly: "If you talk too much, you will die, why don't you understand this truth?"

The faces of the few people who were still talking about it just now became ugly, and they hurriedly stopped talking.

"Palm your own mouth, a thousand times. He snorted coldly and turned back.

The three people downstairs looked at each other, but in the end, they had to slap themselves with a wry smile.

"Brother An is here. ”

Seeing An Luping enter the house, Yu Wensheng got up and said.

"Brother Yuwen has been waiting for a long time. He replied lightly, looked around again, and sneered in his heart, "It turns out that the two Shangshu lords are also there." ”

There were still a few people in the house, two of whom were Huang Xu, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and Chen Ping, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials.

Zhang Xiyun was stunned, he recognized Chen Ping, when he was a saint in the day, it was Chen Ping who was embarrassed by him in the main hall.

"Haven't you seen your lords yet?" An Luping said towards Zhang Xiyun.

Zhang Xiyun came back to his senses when he heard this, and saluted: "Zhang Xiyun has seen King Dingwu and the two Shangshu lords. ”

Chen Ping smiled on the surface, but the cold glint in his eyes was very hidden.

"No need to be polite. Yu Wensheng opened his mouth and said to An Luping: "Brother An, please take a seat." ”

An Luping's eyes swept over, but he didn't sit down, and said, "I don't think it's good for Brother Yuwen to do arithmetic......

Everyone in the room sat down, but there was only one seat left, if An Luping sat down, then Zhang Xiyun would undoubtedly be the only one who had to stand among the people.

Zhang Xiyun naturally understood, and sneered in his heart, this is not to stand and serve himself, this is obviously embarrassing himself, and it is also to embarrass An Luping.

Yu Wenzhao was naturally there, but he was sitting on the sidelines, and he saw Zhang Xiyun sneering behind this scene.

Yuwen Shengji pretended to be confused, patted his head, and said: "It's that this king is confused, this king thinks that today is just you and me getting together, but the two Shangshu adults will also come together after they know about it, Zhao'er and the children of the two Shangshu families have always had a good relationship, so they also came together, but they didn't notice that even the chair was not enough to sit." ”

He smiled at An Luping and said, "After all, the second floor of this Drunken Immortal Residence is not for cats and dogs, who would have thought that so many people would come here in one breath?"

"I also hope that Brother An Haihan. Yu Wensheng said again, but he didn't pay attention to Zhang Xiyun at all, "This king will let someone send another chair over." ”

Zhang Xiyun sneered in his heart, where did he forget this Dingwu King, but he didn't cover it up much, isn't he exactly what he thinks is a cat and a dog?

An Luping's eyes flickered, he naturally knew that this was just a dismount, how could King Dingwu really not let Zhang Xiyun sit down, but whether there was a "place" in this was quite meaningful.

His eyes swept over the people present, and he also knew what happened when Chen Ping and Zhang Xiyun were facing the saint, and Chen Ping naturally didn't like Zhang Xiyun.

The people present are none other left-leaning people in the court, and this Hongmen banquet is not only aimed at him An Luping, but also at Zhang Xiyun, who has a background of three sects and four sects.

He snorted coldly in his heart: "With these people who bully juniors regardless of their identity, Long Ting will be in danger sooner or later. ”

At this moment, he regretted that he really brought Zhang Xiyun over, today's banquet was probably not easy, and even he began to think about whether it would be better to let Zhang Xiyun leave the table first if he was looking for an opportunity.

"Someone, send another chair up. King Dingwu shouted casually, regardless of whether anyone heard it or not, and beckoned An Luping to sit down again.

"Today, the Drunken Immortal Residence seems to be very busy, and I'm afraid it will take a while to send a chair, but this king can't stand Brother An, but he still asks Zhang Zhuangyuan to stand for a while. ”

Zhang Xiyun was angry in his heart, this Dingwu clearly saw that he was not pleasing to the eye, and he wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate.

"Deputy Safety Supervisor, I'm ......" He sent a message to An Luping, and wanted to leave first, but was interrupted by An Luping.

"If your cultivation is too low, the transmission will be intercepted by others, so don't speak. ”

An Luping rehabilitated the voice, and at the same time said: "Bear with this breath first......"

"If you leave like this now, you will be more able to give people a voice. ”

Now when Zhang Xiyun's heart is changing, he can't hold back this breath for a while, and when he is about to say more, he hears a cold voice coming in from outside the door.

"I'm afraid I have to bother King Dingwu to prepare an extra chair for Qingyu. ”

Everyone was stunned, and when they turned their heads, a woman in white with a veil covering her face pushed the door and walked in.

"Lord Qingyu?" everyone was stunned.

Zhang Xiyun frowned and said secretly, why is she here too?

When everyone saw the salute, King Dingwu frowned and looked at his son, with a questioning meaning in his eyes.

Yu Wenzhao shook his head, indicating that he didn't call it, nor did he say it.

"Qingyu came uninvited, and I hope that King Ding Wu will not be surprised. ”

"Lord Qingyu is willing to come over, it's too late for this king to be happy, how can he blame?" Yu Wensheng smiled again.

"But how did the county lord know that this king would hold a banquet here today?"

Qingyu replied calmly: "Could it be that King Dingwu forgot, there are countless 'hooks' sprinkled in the palace, if even the affairs in the imperial capital are missed, wouldn't it be too useless, Qingyu happened to hear about it, and also wanted to see the champion of the current dynasty, so he came uninvited." ”

The "hook" in her mouth is the person who collects intelligence for the palace, and she also has something to say.

"The meaning of her words is to warn this king Mo to be more thoughtful in the imperial capital......" Yu Wensheng sneered inwardly, "I just don't know if this is her own meaning or Your Majesty's meaning......

"She actually said that she came to meet Zhang Xiyun, could it be that there is some secret cooperation between Qin Tianjian and Qingyu Group Master......

Yu Wensheng immediately laughed, and said with a smile on his face: "Yes, this king has been away from Beijing for many years, but he almost forgot, today's county lord came at the right time, this king remembers that the county lord and Zhao'er were also playmates when they were young, and today they are together to catch up with the past." ”

What he said was excellent, but the county lord of Qingyu himself didn't recognize this playmate.

Yuwen Zhao stood up along the lines, and it seemed that he liked this Qingyu county lord very much, and deliberately said in a deep voice: "County lord." ”

Lord Qingyu also smiled faintly, just saluted, and didn't even say a word.

An Luping on the side had several thoughts flashing in his heart, what was the matter with the county lord of Qingyu coming for Zhang Xiyun.

But right now, An Luping, the old fox, is undoubtedly revealing his true nature, and he sat down very simply, looking like he was waiting to see a good show.

He wants to see, after the county lord of Qingyu comes, does Zhang Xiyun have to wait for this place?

If King Dingwu really dared to let the county lord of Qingyu accompany Zhang Xiyun to stand beside everyone, then he would be admired.

"County Lord, why are you here?" Zhang Xiyun said in a low voice.

Lord Qingyu said lightly: "It seems that I came at the right time, you may want to thank me." ”

"Thank you for what?" Zhang Xiyun hesitated.

"Thank you for allowing you to sit down as quickly as possible, and you don't have to stand here alone. ”

“......”

And Yuwen Zhao on the side saw that the county lord of Qingyu did not pay attention to him, but whispered to Zhang Xiyun, and his heart became more and more angry, and he glared at Zhang Xiyun with an angry face.

Sure enough, King Dingwu spoke again: "How can you let the county lord of Qingyu stand here." ”

He turned his head to look at Yuwen Zhao and said, "Zhao'er, let your chair sit on the county lord." ”

Yuwen Zhao came to his senses, hurriedly changed his smile, and said to the county lord of Qingyu: "The county lord should sit down first, and it doesn't hurt for Yuwen Zhao to stand for a while." ”

Unexpectedly, the county lord of Qingyu shook his head and said, "No need, Qingyu is here to meet the champion of today's dynasty, so it's okay." ”

Yuwen Zhao still wanted to say more, but Yuwen Shengji had already seen something, and the county lord of Qingyu really came for Zhang Xiyun.

Yu Wensheng and his eyes signaled Yu Wenzhao to stop talking, and said: "In this case, if you want to come to what our elders can say, you younger generation are not interested in listening more, so it is better to let Zhao'er take you to another elegant room, and you younger generation can also have a good exchange." ”

An Luping on the side smiled at the corner of his mouth, and secretly said to the old fox.

Yu Wensheng and naturally did not let people send two chairs immediately because he didn't want to break his own talents, but he knew that what he was thinking about today had failed due to the arrival of Lord Qingyu, but since the elders were not good at talking, he simply let the juniors "communicate" by themselves.

Before the county lord of Qingyu could speak, Yuwen Shenghe had already said to Yuwen Zhao in an unquestionable tone: "Why don't you hurry up and order, the Drunken Immortal Residence is very busy today, and even the spare private room will be gone after a while." ”

Yu Wenzhao naturally understood what his father meant, and immediately beckoned the two companions beside him to get up.

The county lord of Qingyu didn't know what to think in his heart, but when he saw this, he could only say: "Qingyu's trip is abrupt, so I thank King Dingwu for his kindness." ”

King Dingwu smiled and said: "Let's go, you are all Tianjiao who has won the immortal road list, so naturally you have a lot of experience to exchange, or it is not impossible to learn with your breath." ”

In the words, he separated Zhang Xiyun, who had not yet reached the immortal road, from others.

Zhang Xiyun secretly hated in his heart, and he didn't know why this Dingwu King wanted to target him everywhere, was it just because he was from the sect and was a member of the Qin Heavenly Prison?

"Sooner or later, I will sit at that table, and you will stand aside. He clenched his fists and said secretly in his heart.

He didn't realize that the change between his current and previous thoughts, after he had experienced some things, it seemed that everything was constantly validating that idea for him, maybe all the misfortunes and failures in this world were only due to his own weakness.

And all this laid the foundation for his future.

Seeing that his expression was wrong, An Luping frowned, and said, "Xiyun, since the Qingyu County Lord is going to see you, you can also go with them, or you can humbly ask your peers who have already boarded the Immortal Road for some experience." ”

Zhang Xiyun came back to his senses and said, "Xiyun knows." ”

Among the people present, except for Zhang Xiyun himself, only An Luping knew Zhang Xiyun's general strength, and a monk who had cultivated the innate gossip, if he was under the Heavenly Trench of the Seven Stars, he would really not be afraid of the immortal road.

That Yu Wenzhao doesn't look like a person who can't find trouble, but he doesn't know if he will hit this iron plate.

An Luping was embarrassed to talk about others, and it was clear that he was the old fox. (To be continued.) )
